The procedural move frees up a spot on Los Angeles’ 40-man roster for minor league starter Jake Eder. The 31-year-old reliever signed a one-year contract last month and will continue working his way back from last year’s Tommy John surgery. He could potentially be an option at some point in the late stages of the year.

Cousins will be sidelined until the late stages of the upcoming season while continuing his rehabilitation from last June’s Tommy John surgery. The 31-year-old reliever didn’t pitch at all for the Yankees last season after compiling a strong 2.37 ERA across 38 innings back in 2024. He’s a strong zero-risk lottery ticket for the Dodgers as late-season bullpen depth in the event that his stuff bounces back to pre-surgery levels.

Yankees manager Aaron Boone told reporters Cousins will undergo the season-ending procedure on Wednesday after being shut down from throwing last week with renewed elbow discomfort. It’s a definite hit to New York’s relief depth as Cousins compiled a sparkling 2.37 ERA across 38 innings (37 appearances) last year in his Yankees debut. He figures to miss most of the 2026 season as well, given the timing of the procedure.
